Grilled Beet and Goat Cheese Sandwich

Mild goat cheese melts together perfectly with the tender sweet flavor of roasted beets, while arugula offers a hint of tang, making this sandwich come alive with flavor.
Course Main Course
Cuisine American, Vegetarian
Prep Time 15 minutes
Cook Time 40 minutes
Total Time 55 minutes
Servings 4

Ingredients

  • 2-3 medium-sized beets
  • goat cheese
  • arugula
  • Texas toast Or bread of your choice
  • butter

Instructions

  • Heat oven to 400° F. Clean and peel beets. Place in baking dish and drizzle with olive oil. Roast for about 30 – 40 minutes or until tender testing with a knife (cooking time will vary on size of the beets). Remove from oven and allow to cool enough to be able to handle. When cool thinly slice.
  • Over medium heat sauté the beets searing both sides (this will help prevent excessive bleeding in the sandwich). Sprinkle with salt and pepper.
  • Build the sandwich by placing a handful of arugula on a slice of bread, then a layer of beets, followed by the goat cheese. Top with another slice of bread.
  • Spread butter on the top of the sandwich. Place sandwich in heated skillet buttered side down. Butter the other side. Cook over medium heat until both sides are golden brown, turning only once.

Notes

Canned beets could certainly be used if fresh ones are not available, however I would sauté them lightly before adding to the sandwich.
